Best single player game I have played in a long while maybe ever. Got it for my son for
Christmas and he can't put it down. I'm sure his wife is very happy with me,
though she plays CO-OP with him. Oh and the A-series Laptops play this game Great.
Go Niners : )

I love the game, but when you get killed by Kamodo Dragons and Tigers every 15 minutes on the eastern side of the North Island, gets a little frustrating. But whatever, love the game. One thing i love about the game compared to Far Cry 2 is the fact that the guys actually die when you shoot out them. Just take a piston and take one clean shot to their dome and they are dead. I wish if you sniped them in the head though it blew up!

I enjoyed it (still have some leftover items to collect) and it manages to punish my overclocked 7950 with constant 100% GPU usage. Even ordered an Accelero Xtreme 7970 because my stock cooler is literally crapping out and is unable to keep my GPU cool at all anymore, even with new paste.

Yeah seriously! I was hoping this 680 would clock more but I can only get a 1270 max out of it, if I go to say 1280 it runs everything, but crashes Far Cry 3. Unfortunately Nvidia had to pull the plug on voltage tweaking on all their Kepler cards.

I am too disappointed by FC2 to get into FC3 for more than $25 (50% off).

At $2.50 maybe I should finally give FC2 a try. for another $2.50 I can give FC1 a steam home.

Yeah I just bought it again. Beat it before and let it go with a gamer I sold.
Bought FEAR3 too for $5. I love the Fear games and 3 was the only one I
haven't played. How is the MP on Fear 3 ? You can play LAN games with it
can't you ?

haven't gone back to it since finishing it once.
Still need to play co-op and need to run through it once more.

I'm just now at Motherload. After you beat it can you go back and do all the side missions ?
I would assume so. I'm about ready to want to treat Buck like I did the last one I got. Shootem
in the neck and gut his ass. Actually the last one I got I ran over and dragged him 30 ft
under my Jeep The Police had to shoot that one.

Anyone else having issues connecting to the farcry3 servers got the game x-mas and havent been able to connect to the servers to play any multiplayer or co-op. I checked there forums and evidently the have been down for a couple of weeks with no word from ubisoft. There is about 25 pages of complaints so far.

I'll try , but the single player is keeping me busy !
Yep, you're right. It acts like it is trying, but no connect.
They better figure that shit out or it will die after people beat
the SP a couple times and do all the side missions. Does this
allow LAN games. Haven't even checked. FC2 does !
The main reason I just bought it again.

insanity is playing this games story mode more then once and expecting it to be better the second time
plot has as'bout as much complexity as a game of tic-tac-toe(kill everything no questions)
plot is more transparent then a sheet of plastic wrap if you don't know how its gonna end by the 2D rakatyak mission you seriously need to move out from there that rock

Yes the game is open ended so you can go back and complete what you want to complete to get the achievements.
Funny sneaking up on the enemy and using the repair tool on them.

Had this happen pretty much on launch over here.
Only work around was to run the game with Uplay in offline mode.

Character development is non existent (so we go from whiney rich white kid to emo white kid on crack)

It is a game though you do realize that right ? Not a movie looking for an Oscar ? Let games develop and they will get better.
Just remember now they are making movies from games. Never have seen one that was titled FC3.

Big fan of FC3! First world-map game I've play since FC2, but that one was no comparison to this one. Hands down my favorite game of the year! I just reached the south islands and have plenty more hours of fun to go.

I am running an i5 655k with 4Gb of Kingston 2133mhz ram and a gtx 570 1.2Gb card on Ultra settings (vsync on, AA X4). Everything has been running smooth as glass since day one.
